“No need to look any further, I am the company’s second-largest shareholder.”
A young voice rang out, and almost everyone in the room turned their gaze toward the same direction.
A young man in tattered jeans stepped forward, his hair disheveled, looking every bit like a scavenger.
Hmm~ Indeed, no need to search anymore. The chosen one has come knocking on his own!
Before Jiang Che could even speak, someone started berating him.
“Where did this beggar come from? Get lost!”
“You? The second-largest shareholder of Yuanche Pharmaceutical? Do you even know what that means? 9% of the shares are worth tens of billions. With your shabby appearance...”
“Security! Where’s security? Get this lunatic out of here!”
Jiang Che: “......”
The chosen one comes with an overpowered buff, attracting ridicule wherever he goes.
What a familiar and heartwarming scene.
Jiang Che observed the young man before him with great interest.
[Ding! Detected chosen one ‘Chu Tao’ (Idiot Aura has been deactivated).]
[Chu Tao has bound the ‘Prodigal Son System.’ As long as he squanders money, he will receive corresponding rewards...]
Jiang Che couldn’t help but chuckle. Even a Prodigal Son System has shown up.
This is probably another chosen one similar to Qin Tian, a tycoon-type protagonist.
...
“Hmph... Why can’t I be the company’s second-largest shareholder?”
Seeing the disbelief on everyone’s faces, Chu Tao smirked and lit a cigarette.
Not long ago, he was just an ordinary college loser, juggling four part-time jobs to support his girlfriend.
But then he caught her cheating on him with four rich playboys.
He never imagined that his childhood sweetheart, his pure white moonlight, was actually a public toilet!
And she even mocked him, calling him a loser, claiming it was all just a task assigned by her “master.”
In his grief and anger, he awakened the ‘Prodigal Son System.’ As long as he squandered money, he would grow stronger, and every penny he wasted would be doubled and returned to him!
The 9% stake in Yuanche Group was the system’s beginner’s gift to him!
This gave him the confidence to show off.
But clearly, he had run into Jiang Che... and his act was about to fall apart.
...
“Haha, no matter what you say, I am now the company’s second-largest shareholder.”
“Old Wang has transferred all his shares to me.”
Chu Tao continued his act, cigarette dangling from his lips, hands in his pockets, letting the ash fall wherever it pleased.
The older shareholders in the company were furious.
“Bullshit! Who the hell do you think you are? Old Wang was Chairman Jiang’s most trusted confidant. Why would he transfer his shares to you? Where’s security?”
“This batch of security guards needs to be replaced. How did they let this lunatic in?”
Chu Tao arrogantly flicked the ash from his cigarette, preparing to continue his act.
But just as he was about to speak, Jiang Che interrupted him.
“I just checked, and Old Wang’s shares have indeed been transferred to someone else.”
Jiang Che spoke with a serious expression. Hearing this, Chu Tao was momentarily stunned, but then a smile spread across his face.
“See? They’ve been transferred to me! I have the share transfer agreement!”
But the next second, his smile vanished.
“Old Wang held 9% of the company’s shares and had been with my father for over a decade. If he transferred his shares, he would have informed my father. So, I suspect you used some underhanded means to obtain them.”
Jiang Che gave Chu Tao a cold look. He was all too familiar with these tycoon-type chosen ones. In his past life, he had read plenty of such wish-fulfillment novels.
To make it convenient for the protagonist to show off, the beginner’s gift would often include shares in some super company, completely defying logic!
But such things... couldn’t withstand scrutiny. Where did the tycoon protagonist’s money even come from? That also couldn’t withstand scrutiny!
A thorough investigation would surely reveal the loopholes.
“So, Mr. Chu, I’m afraid you won’t be leaving. I suspect you’re a corporate spy who tricked Old Wang into transferring his shares. I’ve already called the police, and we’ll be conducting a detailed investigation into the matter.”
Jiang Che’s tone was deadly serious. Chu Tao’s eyes widened slightly.
He silently asked his system, “System, are you there? Is this share transfer legit? Don’t screw me over!”
[Host, rest assured. The system’s power is supreme. Old Wang has been brainwashed by the great system and is now your most loyal supporter.]
Hearing this, Chu Tao let out a long sigh of relief, as if he had found some kind of lifeline.
His confidence returned!
“If you don’t believe me, go ask Old Wang yourself. He voluntarily transferred the shares to me. Even the police can’t do anything about it.”
Jiang Che shrugged. He had seen every reaction from Chu Tao.
First, he panicked, and then he became arrogant again?
It must be the system backing him up!
System? I’ll crush you along with your system.
“Oh? You say Old Wang voluntarily transferred the shares to you? Then would you dare to confront him face-to-face?”
Jiang Che sneered. Chu Tao’s Idiot Aura had already been deactivated. A face-to-face confrontation would surely end in disaster.
“Why wouldn’t I dare?”
At that moment, the police arrived, but they were unsure how to handle the situation.
Soon, a man came running in, panting heavily, looking utterly exhausted.
“Little Tang? What’s wrong? Where’s your boss?”
Little Tang was Old Wang’s secretary.
“Young Master Jiang? My boss... for some reason, suddenly transferred all his shares yesterday. I didn’t even know about it. This morning, he suddenly fell ill... and is now in the emergency room. It doesn’t look good.”
Little Tang’s voice trembled with emotion. “I don’t know why he suddenly transferred his shares to someone he didn’t even know.”
Hearing this, Jiang Che turned to Chu Tao, a cold smile playing on his lips.
“Mr. Chu, Old Wang transferred his shares to you yesterday, and today he suddenly fell critically ill. Isn’t that just a little too—”
“Convenient?”
Jiang Che’s words seemed to wake everyone up. All eyes turned to Chu Tao, especially Little Tang’s... they looked like they wanted to kill him.
This kind of share fraud scheme had been played out countless times before.
“N-no... it’s not like that. He voluntarily transferred the shares to me.”
But his explanation sounded weak and unconvincing.
It only made him look more guilty.
The police, who had been listening, now took the matter seriously, especially upon hearing about a life hanging in the balance.
“Mr. Chu, please come with us to the station for further questioning.”
Chu Tao: “......”
He really wanted to curse!
That damn Old Wang, what an idiot! Why did he have to fall ill at this critical moment?
His system, however, remained silent. What it didn’t tell Chu Tao was... Old Wang’s sudden illness was its doing.
It felt that if Old Wang didn’t die... there might be serious consequences.

He spent fifty years diligently building three "ramshackle little sects," thinking he could finally live a carefree life relying on his disciples.

When the system finally fished him back out, he discovered the ramshackle little sects he'd built back then had developed a rather... unusual style. Hold on... I vanished for a thousand years, so how did my ramshackle little sects become holy lands?!
